The Top 5 shows on Netflix to watch in preparation for Salt lake Comic Con FanX 2014

5. Buffy the Vampire Slayer – James Marsters, who brought Spike to glorious unlife, and Julie Benz, who did the same for Darla, are scheduled for FanX. Buffy is the quintessential Joss Whedon series, though Spike and Darla also had appearances on Angel, and Whedon is responsible for the ever-popular Firefly. 4. Dexter – Five guests including Julie Benz and Edward James Olmos; Netflix has eight seasons available to watch. 3. The Walking Dead – This is the Zeitgeist show of the moment. If you haven’t been following along, AMC’s zombie’s take over the world show has been a hit for what seems like forever. With Chandler Riggs and Norman Reedus among the four actors scheduled to appear at FanX, catching up on this show will have you asking “Where’s Carl?” while silently hoping that you could be anywhere near as competent as Daryl Dixon, even if he is not the nicest guy on the show. Netflix has three seasons of the show available. 2. Doctor Who – even if Karen Gillan had not been recently announced, going to any Comic Con event means lots of the Doctor – Doctor Who? Exactly. With both the Tardis and Amy Pond, the second greatest companion of the modern era, in attendance at FanX, get on board and have the time of your life. Netflix has the original series, the new series and the spin-off – Torchwood. Start with the new series if you are new to the show. 1. Star Trek: The Next Generation – binge watching this show will get you prepared for eight guests, including Jonathan Frakes, LeVar Burton and Denise Crosby. It will also prepare you for the Bridge of the Starship Enterprise-D. With guests still to be announced, it would be surprising if Patrick Stewart doesn’t show up (unless he is off winning the Internet somewhere with Ian McKellen). Seven seasons are available as well as a couple of movies.
